I brought in my engagement ring and a family wedding ring for resizing. The wedding ring had engraving and needed to be decreased NINE SIZES but somehow they may light work of it, both rings look incredible and I am so happy this place was recommended to me!

We?ve had 3 pieces of silver jewellery made by Julian Stephen and the team, and our daughters are delighted with the pieces, so much so they?ve not stopped wearing them. Very friendly, welcoming and helpful staff at the shop, delivering exactly what we wanted. Thankyou!

Julian was recommended as someone who would be able to craft something very special for our engagment ring and he really didn't disappoint! Julian and the team were friendly, helpful and delivered on time. A beautiful stone and amazingly intricate engraving. Highly recommend!

Sadly I was very disappointed with the work done on two special bracelets I took to have remodelled.I felt you felt that the job wasn?t that important, there was not much attention to detail or guidance and I won?t be using you again.

So enthusiastic about my project, he willingly guided me through a world I knew nothing about. I had an absolute blast!Thank you Julian, you have created a fun and exciting space to be creative. Thank you guys!!I will be back, to make the wedding bands at the very least.

I was recommended this jeweller by a local shop in Portland Rd Hove...they were not able to repair/remake my mother in laws old diamond ring which had broken and they directed me to JS. JS went through all the options carefully and simply. I had another old ring from my mother and in the most beautiful way, they refashioned both rings to come up with a lovely new ring which now sits comfortably and securely on my finger permanently, a reminder of both ladies I love. I have two small diamonds and an emerald from my mother's ring which I'm hopefully going to have made into a piece of jewellery for my son's 21st later this year. I will be returning to JS!

Came here to fix my grandmothers old ring, a really personal job. The ring is old and a bit battered, and was almost entirely split in two. Everyone at J S was proffesional, friendly, and the fix was not only perfect, but took about half the time and money I was expecting it to. They even cleaned it for me, it feels like a new ring! So much love for the whole team here, and I'll never go anywhere else!

I found this beautiful jewellers in October last year. It was my sons 16th birthday coming up as well as Christmas. However, not living in the town it was tricky to go back and forth, so I dealt with them via the telephone and text message and they were amazing. The staff are so friendly, so helpful and very polite. The jewellery speaks for itself. It?s strong and beautiful, very well-made. Any issues they deal with it efficiently and effectively. Looking forward to buying a piece of jewellery for my mum?s 60th this year. Thank you.

I can't recommend Julian Stephens highly enough. Having seen a ring in the window before, I rang them up and tried to describe it to see if they still had it. Katie identified the ring, WhatsApped me a pic to make sure, and then sent it out to me kindly removing any reference to it being sent from a jewellers in case my partner (now fiancé!) saw it being delivered. Amazingly helpful, and a wonderful service, not to mention a beautiful range of jewellery.

I had bought something from Julian Stephens a few years back and I remembered him showing me a box with different gems, and how enthusiastic he was about them. So when I recently needed something special for someone special I headed to his shop. I was looking for an opal pendant (birthstone of Libra) but there was nothing in the showcase, then a voice from the back said "I'm sure we could make something up, when do you need it by?", "The end of the week" I replied. So out steps Julian with a box of beautiful opals... One called out to me.. he suggested an open back so you could see both sides. When I went to pick it up the man who did the work told me what an opal was, that in fact in was ancient fossilized ocean. The work was absolutely beautiful and the gift was very well received. I doubt I could find a better jewellers and to be honest I don't think I'll look for one. The personal service, skill and enthusiasm would be hard to beat.

I must have looked at several hundred engagement rings (online, in windows, over the counter...new, antique, custom... ) and I just didn't like any of them, they seemed a bit boring. I saw in Julian's window the first ring that I truly liked-I was SO pleased to finally be getting somewhere-at last! I went in and he was there himself.I told him I loved the ring I'd seen, and had a good chat with him. I was really impressed with his knowledge, experience and creativity. I would have bought the original ring on the spot, and told him so. But we discussed what I had in mind, and he offered to make a new one based on what we had discussed, and quickly followed up with sketches. He personally selected different stones for me to choose from. He suggested 2 additional changes that really brought the ring to life, and I feel reflect a lifetime and passion in jewellery (I later discovered he runs jewellery courses).My Fiancé was thrilled, definitely well, well, well beyond expectations. If you're looking for something special, or unique, I can recommend Julian without any reservation whatsoever.

FABULOUS! we had both our wedding bands and my engagement ring created by Julian, and his time, care and attention to detail was wonderful. He worked with us to create pieces far beyond our dreams. HUGE thanks Julian - highly recommended x
